Rush Limbaugh focuses on Obama’s race

Rush Limbaugh said on Wednesday that the liberal elite media shields President Barack Obama because they feel guilty about slavery and feel sorry for Obama.

“Liberals consider themselves elites. They’re elites intellectually, smarter than everybody else. They’re better people. They look at the original sin of slavery in this country as something that will forever shape, harm, penalize blacks,” Limbaugh said on his radio show according to a show transcript. “It is something that, as far as liberals are concerned, especially in the media, will never be overcome. They’re still slaves in one way or another. This manifests itself in people feeling sorry for them. There’s sympathy.”

He then referred to James Golden, Limbaugh’s African American producer who is frequently referred to on Limbaugh’s show as Bo Snerdley.

“[The liberal elite media] look at Obama and they feel sorry for him. So unfair that he should have to deal with all these critics on the right. It’s so unfair, because, of course, the interesting thing here is Obama does not come from the American civil rights tradition or heritage. As our Official Obama Criticizer, Mr. Snerdley would say, he doesn’t have slave blood,” Limbaugh said. “He’s never been down for the struggle. But it doesn’t matter. This is how elite liberals look at minorities.”

He said that it amounted to a “form of discrimination” that leads the media to have “this almost parental type protective bubble.”

“You talk to conservative blacks, they’ll tell you exactly this, and they know exactly what I’m talking about. It’s actually a form of discrimination. The soft bigotry of low expectations and it leads them to have this almost parental type protective bubble,” Limbaugh said.

He continued: “That’s why there’s no Benghazi story. It’s not fair the first black president should have to deal with this stuff. It’s not fair. They’ve already had to put up with so much as blacks in this country. It’s not fair, traditional standards that presidents have been held to, Obama is exempt. It’s a racial thing.”

Limbaugh and crew show again that facts and research are of no interest and use to them. Easier to just make things up. Ancestry.com head geneaologist showed earlier this year that Obama is descended, through his mother's family, to one of the first slaves in Virginia and America -- John Bunch II. See link below. Point is, Obama's story and family represents the classic American family with all of its diversity and complexities. But guess it is easy -- and timely -- for Limbaugh to race-bait at the 11th hour.

Not surprising to see the Dems, Libs, socialists, etc., all dump on Rush and say nothing about how Obama has played the race card, directly or through others, for the past 4 years. Obama has failed as an executive, a politician, a statesman, etc. Obama and the Dem party are the party of racists and have keep a dependent class going for 50 years.

Its time for him to go. The message in the 2010 election was only a start. Voters will finish it on Nov. 6th.

Rush is so jealous of this President he can't help himself. President Obama has accomplished things (such as Columbia and Harvard graduate, POTUS) that Rush could only dream of. Rush is the one who should be pettied because he has to go on the air everyday and make sh*t up about the President to feel good about himself and to make money.
